Sometimes people name their pet(s) “Mr. | Mrs. {insert name here}”, so the cat’s name really could be “Mr. Tinkles”. Anyway, Dan should not wield that sword in the public; that blue glow could cause some attention.

I really hate having to play devil’s advocate here, but that cat model doesn’t seem to like having its limbs manipulated. All four limbs look like they’re broken (or, at least, fractured). Also, a cat would lower its head when running; the pose just doesn’t look natural.

But, hey, first nitpick in a VERY long time for me. Pretty good, considering I started reading back in, what, chapter 3 or so?

That was funny. But a twig DID snap – something kittens can usually only cause by falling on them – and Excalibur DID glow. I suspect there’s something else out there, not willing to get too close to Dan now that he’s armed…
